FA24015BC - 15 Amp Circuit Breaker

FA24015BC - 15 Amp Circuit Breaker

When you need a circuit breaker that matches the specifications of your existing electrical system, the FA24015BC provides the form, fit, and function required for compatible FA-frame installations. This 15 Amp, 2-pole molded case circuit breaker uses a thermal-magnetic trip mechanism to protect electrical circuits from overloads and short circuits during normal operation. Its I-Line plug-in design allows installation in compatible equipment, while the B-C phase configuration ensures proper application where that phase arrangement is required.
